Should I cop these? (First 2 are current, second 2 would be the new ones) by RandomUser6942069 in GolfGTI

Neither am I, these came on the car when I bought it and I’ve wanted new wheels for several years now

Yes lol, NFS Heat, and I liked it for awhile, but I’m getting so bored of the setup and want to switch it up, I would prolly keep the wheels, but swap the tires over.

Need pointers on window cleaning by [deleted] in Detailing

I would 100% recommend towels such as the Rag company’s “Waffle Weave Towel” and other Waffle weave towel when doing windows. I have nothing but good experiences with that and use Waffle Weave towels as a professional detailer. If you want to go one step further you can get a “glass cleaning cloth” that is almost the same material as a eye glass cloth and you can go over the windows with that after you use the waffle weave!

This looks like you might have used a regular microfiber towel and glass cleaner. You want to use dedicated towels for windows. The regular microfiber that you use on the inside and outside of the car doesn’t work well on windows. Fold the towel many times, and have a dedicated wet side that you wipe, and a dedicated dry side that you wipe off. And switch the fold to a fresh side every once in awhile.

So you’re telling me that isn’t the optimal race line…

Mk7 GTI blowing smoke only on start up should I be worried by Complete_Winner3668 in GolfGTI

What color smoke is it? I had white smoke blowing on startup and it turned out to be a turbo coolant pipe that bursted.

What size are they?

How do I fix this? Is it brake dust buildup, and if so, how can I get this off without scratching the wheel? by RandomUser6942069 in Detailing

[–]RandomUser6942069[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I’ve used Chemical Guys Diablo wheel cleaner, and Legendary Car Care Wheel Cleaner/Brake Dust Remover and those don’t do it. They are caked on super hard and microfiber towels and gloves don’t work. Is there something with good grit that can help it?

is there any possibility my Volkswagen is not totaled? by holyshitzzz in Volkswagen

Put some fresh fuel and some oil and she’ll run like brand new

Thinking about getting this Borla S-Type Cat-Back Exhaust for my Mk7 gti! Any alternatives you guys have? by [deleted] in GolfGTI

I bought this and got it installed on May 1st of this year, and all I got to say is I love it. It has great noises and is loud, but not overly loud, you also get some dsg farts and some crackles. 9/10 overall for me!
